Frequently asked questions

A fixed rate home loan lets you fix your interest rate for a set period between one and five years. Your rate and the repayments you make on your home loan won't change during this period. At the end of your fixed rate period, you can choose to either fix a new rate, or roll to a variable rate home loan.

A variable rate home loan has an interest rate that changes over time, making it more flexible than a home loan with a fixed rate. Learn more about the differences between fixed and variable rates.

Splitting a fixed loan would be considered a break in the fixed term, so break fees may apply. If you have a variable loan, it's easy to split your loan between variable and fixed.

The break fee depends on a number of factors, including how long you have left on your fixed period. Learn more about ending your fixed rate home loan early.

An offset account is a transaction account linked to your home loan, and the money in that account “offsets” your home loan so that you pay less interest. Depending on the type of home loan you have, you might be able to set up multiple offset accounts.

What’s the comparison rate?
It’s a tool that can help you identify the truer cost of a loan. It’s calculated using a standard formula that includes the interest rate, as well as certain fees and charges relating to a loan (not all fees and charges are included).

Comparison rate warning:
Comparison rate is calculated on the statutory assumption of $150,000 loan over 25 years but the minimum required loan amount is $200,000 for the Complete Home Loan Package. Different rates apply for different loan amounts and may depend on the duration of a fixed rate period or the ratio of the loan amount to the property value. WARNING: This comparison rate applies only to the example or examples given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan.

Loan purpose
Loans for a property to live in — also known as owner-occupier loans — include (but aren’t limited to) loans to fund the purchase of a property or refinance an existing loan, where the borrower currently lives or intends to live in the property.

Loans for an investment purpose — also known as investor loans — include (but aren’t limited to) loans where the predominant part is used to invest in shares, land, construction or an established property. They also include refinancing an investor loan.

Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) is the portion of money you are borrowing in relation to the value of the property.

Lenders’ Mortgage Insurance (LMI) is insurance to protect your lender if you have trouble with your repayments in the future. LMI can be an added expense when you’re buying your home, but you can avoid it if you save more than 20% of the value of your property to pay as a deposit.
